Arguing is a form of communication. If you stop arguing it means you no longer care

I always like to agree with you Endora!!
************************************************
But if we were all clones the world would be a mighty boring place!!!
*****************************************************
Go about your own path.
I will go about mine.

Should we meet and agree,
It will be beautiful.

If we do not, then it too,
Will be beautiful.

For your path has its own beauty
And wondrous sights as does mine.

The greatest beauty will be for us to
Share out experiences and be made
Richer by our differences.

A very fitting verse for R&S don't you agree?
Many Blessings!

WHAT?!? I agree arguing is a form of communication, it's a natural response to conflict. It's merely impossible to not argue, but I don't think that if you stop arguing you no longer care. Think about this, in a baseball game, the umpire makes a bad call, the coach goes out and argues. He could stop before he gets kicked out so that he can continue leading his team, he could stop because he realised it was the right call, stop because the umpire can't change the call now so what is there too argue about, etc... Now say that coach was arguing a play, where the umpire called a guy safe, but he was really out, the coach stops arguing and goes back to the dugout, that player ends up scoring, and the coaches team loses by one run. The coach quit arguing, but now what happened, the arguement has reached a new level because it affected a proceeding event. Another example is if you argue with your wife, sometimes it gets to a point where the arguement is out of hand, you might stop arguing BECAUSE YOU CARE! Other times when you argue, it ends up showing you how much the person you argue with does care. If you argue over, say politics, if someone doesn't back down and quit arguing, you can tell they really care about there voice/opinion being heard (they care), but if they stop arguing because they realize it won't change your opinion, they still care abuot there view, just not so much about changing your view. Then you can tell how much they care, if they either apologize for arguing (they care), decide to not speak with you again (they don't care about you), or begin to run there mouths about you (they don't care about your feelings)

In a way yes, if you stop arguing, it means that you no longer care.

But one correction, you no longer care about the perception of the person who argues with you.

Different people have the different perceptions about the same thing/object, based on the way they have grown.

Do you think, these perceptions that different people have about the same object is going to make any difference about the true nature of the object/thing that is being perceived.

So stopping argument also means, accepting the person's perception from his point of view. Do remember there is no guarantee that your perception is true either.

To certain extent, yes arguing is a form of communication [example: lawyers argue in court]. But argument need to be done properly to make it meaningful.

A proper argument is like this:
X states his opinion.
Y disagree and infom X the reason of his disagreement.
X can counter argue by giving his reason why he does not agree with Y's reasoning.

The problem with some people is like this:
X states his opinion.
Y disagree but he does not give his reason why he is disagreeing. But instead he calls X a liar, a moron, a nerd etc.
Feeling angry, X will reply by also giving bad/negative names to Y.

So, even if we want to argue, lets do it in a proper manner.

It is a form of communication, but what you argue about depends on whether you care or not.

Do you mean argue as in talking? Because I have had occasions when I conversed with others without uttering a word - by just doing things around them. If you are human and live in society you carry your aura around you that is making statements all the time to which others react.

I actually agree! If I wouldn't care I would say nothing - but I do so I argue in a very passionate way!

Do you know while arguing we get a bad opinion from others. But I don't mean that we must not argue.

no arguing is trying to win the conversation with or without the point communication is talking with point of view when you stop arguing is when the problem is solve.

Depends on the intention for argument. Intention is everything.
However, the word argument might imply confrontation and confrontation might imly closed-mindedness. Dicussion or dialogue might be a better word. If people keep an open mind in any discussion (argument) and its not about pushing an egotistical agenda for them then the outcome could be fruitful in that someone could learn something from it, inshAllah.

Peace.

Awesome point. I'd hate to live in a world where everyone agreed. I would have no one to argue with.
